The country around Bavispe, Sonora, is turning out to be great mining cen tre. Bavispe was the place where the great earthquake disturbance took place in the Sierra Madre country some months ago. There have been no earth quake shocks since the end of July. The country has been very little prospected for mineral, but it is known that every foot of land between Bavispe and Bacarac is full of silver, and is prospected in only one or two places. Only high grade min- cral has been sent out of the country, as for at least fifty miles it Is carried on burros before they strike wagon trail or railroad station. Plenty of the ore about Bavispe will stand even that expense. The country IS very favorable for mining, there being plenty of water, grass and timber all aronnd. There are about one dozen Americans in the country tributary to Bavispe.

The Way it is Done.
(Phenix Gazette.)

The Coronado Beach Company is boom ing that place by all the legitimate means at its commend and the conse- quences are that thousands of people and millions of capital are focking there to make investments. A gentleman who was on the train one day last week be- tween Maricopa and Yuma, says that the coaches Were all crowded with i'm migrants, bound for different places in the Golden state, but most of them were undecided where they would locate. He says that on each seat was a well gotten up pamphlet, descriptive of the coun- try surrounding Coronado and map of the town, besides many handsome illus trations of the natural scenery along the beach. All these were distributed by an agent of the company and of course were read by.
 EVERY PASSENGER ON THE TRAIN,
 influencing many of them to go there and see for themselves, whether or not the many advantages set forth, have an ex- istence. Were similar policy adopted by the people of this valley, who can tell the wonderful influence it would exert in bringing tourists in our midst? The time for such action is now iipe, and another month should not be allowed to pass without something definite being done. There are too many western countries seeking immigration and work ing with might and main, brain and money to secure it, for the people of this fair valley to lie idle and imagine that the simple existence of fertile soil aRd delightful climate will accomplish the settling, by thrifty farmers and enter prisiag capitalists, of even this, the finest spot of Gods creation.

ought to be at any particular moment,
If on time: but as trains frequently and
generally get late the train OF inferior
class must have its movement expedited
by some extraneous cause or it may be
delayed for hours awaiting train that
may have been wrecked or has been kept
back for some other of many causes.
Then the duties of the train dispatcher
are of importance. He will probably
give an order to the delayed train by
telegraph directing it not to go beyond
a certain place which he thinks it can
reach without difficulty, and he directs
the opposing train to proceed to the
same place and there pass the other
train and in that manner the trains are
enabled to pass each other without any
delay to either. His great responsibility
consists in that he may have e dozen
other trains in his charge at the same
time and in directing one train to go
beyond its usual place to meet another
he may neglect to give an order to the
second train and in such an event col
lision would probably ensue, much prop
erty be destroyed and probably lives be
lost.
1t will readily be seen that the slight
est mistake Of train dispatcher might
cause serious results; and in this respect
his responsibility is probably greater
than that Of any o:her individual under
whose charge the public are placed. A
pilot on vessel may lose his reckoning,
but the fact soon becomes apparent to
others, and his capacity for mischief is
thereby lessened; other railway en-
ployes may neglect their duties, and
rush headlong into danger, but their
associates generally realize the situation
before any unfortunate results ensue;
but the slightest behest of a train dis
patcher must be obeyed without ques-
ton; even though to do so would
jeopardize the lives of those receiving
the orders-tlough of course until an
accident results the train men are ignc-
rant Of the fact that they have been given
wrong directions.
Instances Of oversight Of Gspatchers
are extremely rare-much less than OF
neglect Of conductors and engineers to
adhere to the orders given to them-and
while they perform their onerous duties
almost entirely unknown to the people
whose lives they have in their control,
and therefore never receive the need of
praise due them, travellers ought at least
be made acquainted with their duties
and the important part they play in the
rapid and safe movement Of passengers.

Bloody Riot in Denver.

DENVER, April IA bloody riot oc-
Cured here tonight between rival
Swedish, Polish and Hungarian colonies,
at 34th and Blake streets, which resulted
in the fatal shooting of five men and the
serious wounding OF several others.
It grew out of christening festiYity.
When the christening party had eaten
and drunk they went out upon the side
walk and made var upon the inhabitants
OF neighboriDg house. Others in the
neighborhooI became involved and the
uproar became great.
It required detachment Of a dozen
police, armed with Winchesters, to quel
the disturbance. Three or four police
first made their appearance, when the
rioters postponed their contention and
joined forces against the common enemy.
They could not stand against the rifles,
however, and about thirty were lodged
in the calaboose and some in the hospi-
tai.
But one OF two of the prisoners can
speak English. They are all ragged,
dirty and spattered with blood, and have
the appearance of belonging to the low
est type OF humanity. Many OF them
arrived in Denver only a week ago, direct
irom Hungaria, Poland, Bohemia and
other parts OF Europe.

The great lesson which Cuv;er taught
! the world was, that many races OF anl-
mails were entirely extinct, and th@t
natures chain of existence had not one
but many missing links. From his
recognition OF that fact the science OF
pal;eontology may be said to date. Bat
the car.liyorous nature OF The mastodon
was too fascinating IN absurdity to be
so easily killed. ana 1t continued to &p-
pear at intervals. As late as 1888 Tc

writin. is il i: were an unquestlonab!c
tact. Tie giant theory fingered still
longer, and even yc5 cannot he corsId-
ercd entirely extinct among the un-
learned. The dicttIm that the supersti-
tioGs OF one age are but the science Of
preceding ages receives ample contirma-
ton in the :.;..tory of this subject. Not
longer ago ;iu.n 1916 a mastodon skele-
ton was exhibited in New Orleans as
that Of giant. The Uranium was made
OF raw hide, fantastic wooden teeth were
fitted in the jaws, all missing parts were
restored after tie human model, and the
whole raised upon the hind legs. It
certainly conveyed the notion OF 'ta
hideous, diabo!icai giant" and was no
doubt responsible for many nightmares.
As sad commentary on the state / the
medical profession in the southwest at the
time, It may be added that the exhibitor
was perfectly honest in his belief, and to
support his faith he had trunk full Of
physicians certificates that these were
human bones.
In 1910 ':Dr. Koch, German char
latan, created a great sensation by an
nouncing the discovery Of the ieviathan
OF Job, which he called the Missourium,
from the State where it was found. 1t
turned out, however, to be nothing but

WANTS AN ENDORSEMENT.
The Pathetic Appeal of One of Alexander H.
Stephens Old Servants.
(From the Atlanta Constitution.


(From the Atlanta ConstitutIon.)
The following rather pathetic epistle
was among those recently received by
Governor Gordon:
HoN. JOHN B. GoRDoN-Dear Sir:
Pardon me for taking the privilege Of
writing to you to ask favor of you.
About two months ago was discharged
as messenger in the Interior Depart
ment, on false report, and the Hon.
Van q. Manning and an ex-member of
Congress from the State of Mississippi
instructed me to write to you, knowing
that you was personal friend of my
former master, Hon. Alexander q.
Stephens, and ask you would you be
kind enough to write to the Hon. Henry
Harris, Third Assistant Postmaster
General, at Washington, D. c., in my
behalf. Mr.. Gordon, I was always faith
ful in discharging my duties as a mes
senger, and OF all the moneys, stamps
and other valuables that I handled or
passed through my hands of the depart
ment, my employers viii say to-day that
they never had the least suspicion of my
honesty. Furthermore I was true to
my old master. I was faithful. I served
him well, and he said when he put me
in the department, upon this he felt
bound to serve me some too. I was In
General Toombs's brigade during the
war and served there faithful as a SER
want. I have crawled up on my knees
and hands, over a mile, to carry my
friends something to eat that was in the
defense Of their section of the country
and General Toombs has often said I
never forgot my natural ritual. I know
who my best friends are. Mr.. Stephens
said that it are the duty Of those that
were elevated to high, lofty position to
look upon the humble and poor with the
eye of pity for this reason I appeal to
your sympathy, your charity and to
your generosity as the Governor OF the
dear old State that give me birth to
look upon my humble and deprived con-
dition with pity. I beg OF you, sir,
with all the humbleness crowning the
act of a servant to write to Mr.. Harris at
the earliest date as your conveniences
will allow you in my behalf.
1 remain, sir, your most humble and
obedient servant, PIERCE LAFAYETTE.
